DIED.
 
  On the 9th inst., of Typhoid fever, Emily, daughter of Capt. James 
and Sarah Crowther, in the 19th year of her age.
 When informed of the approach of death, and interrogated as to her 
prospects of future happiness, she meekly replied, "I fling myself at 
the feet of Jesus."  The tranquility of her dying moments assured us of 
her acceptance. 
 "Leaves have their time to fall,
 And flowers to wither at the North-wind's breath,
 And stars to set - but all,
 Thou hast all seasons for thine own, Oh! Death."

Tyrone Star, Tyrone, Pa., Saturday, January 14, 1860
